As shown in FIG. 2B, the light-emitting device 2 includes a substrate 20, a light-emitting stack 22 formed on the substrate 20, and a transparent conductive layer 24 formed on the light-emitting stack 22. The light-emitting stack 22 includes a first semiconductor layer 220, an active layer 222 and a second semiconductor layer 224 formed on the substrate 20 sequentially. A first trench 25 is formed in the transparent conductive layer 24 and the light-emitting stack 22 so as to expose a first upper surface 221 of the first semiconductor layer 220. In this manner, the light-emitting stack 22 and the transparent conductive layer 24 on the first semiconductor layer 220 are separated into a first light-emitting structure X and a second light-emitting structure Y. In other words, the first and the second light-emitting structures X, Y share the first semiconductor layer 220, but in different regions on the first semiconductor layer 220, each light-emitting structure X, Y respectively includes an active layer 222, a second semiconductor layer 224, and a transparent conductive layer 24. As shown in FIG. 2A, second trenches 27 are formed in the first and the second light-emitting structures X and Y respectively, and therefore the first upper surface 221 is exposed. A first electrode 21 is disposed on the first upper surface 221 in the second trench 27, and the second electrode 23 is disposed on the transparent conductive layer 24. A first trench 25 is formed between the first light-emitting structure X and the second light-emitting structure Y, and the first electrode 21 and the second electrode 23 are both disposed on the outer region beyond the first trench 25. That is, no electrode is disposed in the first trench 25. By such configuration, current is distributed in the first and the second light-emitting structures X and Y respectively and thereby to improve the luminous efficiency of the light-emitting device 2, as shown in FIG. 2E. From the top view, the first and the second light-emitting structures X, Y have the same pattern. In this embodiment, the light-emitting structures having the same pattern indicates that the light-emitting structures have rectangular shape with same size, same electrode layouts, and symmetrical locations of the electrodes, which benefit the current spreading and alignment during follow-up wire bonding process. FIG. 2F, a cross-sectional view taken across line B-B of FIG. 2A, shows in more detail, cross-sectional views of second trench 27 and first electrode 21 and their relative positions.

D is substantially equal to the size of the first pad 21A. For example, if the first pad 21A is a circular shape, D is approximately the diameter of the circular shape; if the first pad is a rectangular shape, D is approximately the length of the rectangular shape. Therefore, current flowing from the first pad 21A can be spread effectively so as to improve luminous efficiency of the light-emitting device 2. In another embodiment, the gap D is approximately 60 μm to 100 μm. Besides, at least one of the first extending parts 21B has different extending direction from those of other extending parts 21B. For example, one of the first extending parts 21B extends to the first side 223 and other extending parts 21B extend to the second side 225 to improve current spreading and luminous efficiency of the light-emitting device 2.

The transparent conductive layer 24 improves ohmic contact between the light-emitting stack 22 and the second electrode 23 as well as current spreading. The transparent conductive layer 24 is transparent to light emitted from the light-emitting stack 22.

 12. The light-emitting device of claim 11, further comprising an exposing part surrounding the first light emitting structure, and the second light emitting structure.
 13. The light-emitting device of claim 11, wherein the first trench is devoid of the first electrode formed therein.
 14. The light-emitting device of claim 11, wherein the first trench is devoid of the second extending part formed therein.
 15. The light-emitting device of claim 11, wherein the first electrode comprises an extending direction parallel to the first trench.
 16. The light-emitting device of claim 11, further comprising a third light-emitting structure and a fourth light-emitting structure formed on the first semiconductor layer, wherein the first trench is formed between the third light-emitting structure and the fourth light-emitting structure.
 17. The light-emitting device of claim 16, further comprising a first bridging part between the first light-emitting structure and the third light-emitting structure.
 18. The light-emitting device of claim 17, further comprising a second bridging part between the second light-emitting structure and the fourth light-emitting structure.
